Smile Hello All!
I was reading through some of the posts, and thought "wow, there is some great support and information in here!" So, I joined
I am scheduled for surgery on Tuesday April 29th at 10 am. I'm very nervous and excited at the same time! I've been reading the advice from the site, and I want to say "thanks" for having it there; it's really informative.

Welcome! This is a great forum and a wonderful resource. I have found some great information on here on everything from gasiness and periods to protein drinks and tuna patties! Good luck on your journey and again, welcome to the forum!

Welcome Chichi.

You're in the best place IMHO - the knowledge and support these folk have is immense. Pull up a chair and read all you can.

Hi Valerie!
I'm scheduled for the RNY.
I can't wait to see if I really am "big boned"!
